(you should check that out, too! it&#8217;s very weird and awesome.) each day i read through one page of his project and collect some accidental phrases that appeal to me, and i make a poem out of them. here&#8217;s the one for today, to whet your appetite:</p> <p class="p1"> </p> <p><strong>the pretty perfectionist of chicago</strong></p> <p class="p1"> </p> <p class="p1">her ukulele self</p> <p class="p1">would come by recognition</p> <p class="p1"> </p> <p class="p1">she uses patterns</p> <p class="p1">pushed too far like fake names</p> <p class="p1"> </p> <p class="p1">songs rattling, so</p> <p class="p1">she’s a shoulder and a bump</p> <p class="p1"> </p> <p class="p1">about as close as amnesia</p> <p class="p2">after the first guess</p> <p class="p1"> </p> <p>&#8212;</p> <p>okay, thanks for indulging me! we now return you to your regularly-scheduled program of semi-nude women.</p>http://realbroad.tumblr.com/post/47571673529http://realbroad.tumblr.com/post/47571673529Tue, 09 Apr 2013 15:51:00 -0700personalwritingpoetrypoem<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/d577b35047040263d04c03bed55fd5fd/tumblr_mkunhgjFdg1qdwo7go1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://hoodoothatvoodoo.tumblr.com/post/47300241673">hoodoothatvoodoo</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>Malika Favre</p> <p>‘Scorpio’ (Ongoing series commissioned by the french magazine <em>Be</em> for their monthly issue)</p> <p>2013</p> </blockquote>http://realbroad.tumblr.com/post/47531812505http://realbroad.tumblr.com/post/47531812505Tue, 09 Apr 2013 04:00:38 -0700<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/05b62ace187ff52c98743e4d6df6764e/tumblr_mktoq8PZLi1qz5q5oo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://mudwerks.tumblr.com/post/47301971687/1933-amelia-earhart-by-x-ray-delta-one-howard">mudwerks</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>1933 … Amelia Earhart (by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/x-ray_delta_one/8622787721/">x-ray delta one</a>)</p> <p>Howard Chandler Christy</p> </blockquote>http://realbroad.tumblr.com/post/47511525244http://realbroad.tumblr.com/post/47511525244Mon, 08 Apr 2013 20:00:37 -0700<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/497ba5dd883c30ed482d6d5633e57bb2/tumblr_mkvd28juUR1qeasjoo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Film poster, 1968</p>http://realbroad.tumblr.com/post/47490531468http://realbroad.tumblr.com/post/47490531468Mon, 08 Apr 2013 16:00:48 -0700vintagedesignfilmgraphic designposter19681960s<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/fdc9a0e04b6fd17f830b904cbec93764/tumblr_mkuh7fldZr1qabj53o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://retrogasm.tumblr.com/post/47307451211/marilyn-by-bert-stern">retrogasm</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>Marilyn by Bert Stern</p> </blockquote>http://realbroad.tumblr.com/post/47471978455http://realbroad.tumblr.com/post/47471978455Mon, 08 Apr 2013 12:00:33 -0700<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/57c82bd6049ba608ba1751dca61062b2/tumblr_mkuv58O20j1qcwhbgo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://sisterwolf.tumblr.com/post/47312766439/carlos-ochagavia">sisterwolf</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>Carlos Ochagavia</p> </blockquote>http://realbroad.tumblr.com/post/47458966125http://realbroad.tumblr.com/post/47458966125Mon, 08 Apr 2013 08:00:25 -0700<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/70cf085d93ae0bbdcd2cbd8debd65dae/tumblr_mkouzqA1EJ1qeasjoo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Dress from Stehli Silks Americana Print collection, 1925</p>http://realbroad.tumblr.com/post/47449131339http://realbroad.tumblr.com/post/47449131339Mon, 08 Apr 2013 04:00:15 -0700vintagefashionvintage fashion1925dress1920s
